The effect of high-resolution images on results

[fy99925]

I used A100 on the server to train the original resolution image (almost 5600*3600), with all parameters unchanged and 30,000 iterations. The result is blurrier than the image training that is automatically cropped to 1.6k. It is strange. I think higher resolution images may lead to better results.

I wonder about this, what is the effect of high resolution images on guassian splatting? How can I use high resolution images better in gs?

What parameter you use?

Hi!

I actually used a derivative work of 3DGS and modified it a bit. But I think it's probably a common problem, which may be caused by some mechanism in 3DGS. But I didn't figure it out, and it confused me.

The parameters are basically the default for this job and have not been modified. The parameters are as follows:

    def __init__(self, parser, sentinel=False):
        self.sh_degree = 3

If you use in train.py "-r 1" parameter for my side it always do a random thing. If I set it like -r 2400 it ten to work.

[fy99925]

Oh, I misunderstood. Okay, I'll try that. I did use -r1 to train.

[fy99925]

Well, I used the -r 5605(the width of images) parameter for the training, and the results were about the same as the -r 1, both more blurred than the training results automatically cropped to 1.6k.

This is confusing for me, but thank you for your help.
